Woodward Dream Cruise - Day 2
I hate this year of Mustang, in fact I think everyone does. This is the year that the Mustang went to the crapper. However, this is one of the nicest mustangs I have ever seen.
How do you make your Cobra replica stand out from all the other 427 cobras? Put a Grand National 3.8 L turbo in it and run 10.80's.
These next three pics are how Fred feels when he sees cars of this caliber. The first of the trifecta is the "Hurst Hauler". I want to know how many tons of crack you have to smoke before putting a station wagon on the back of a Firebird sounds like a good idea.
The next item up for bid is the new Chevy avalanche, I wish a big avalanche would take out every one of these worthless yuppymobiles. Check out how shameless Fred is, there are people sitting in the bed of the "truck"
The last was by far the funniest. This guy had the balls to cruise down Woodward in this Prelude. He had just finished revving the heck out of it, and a guy standing beside us yells, "Sounds like my lawnmower" Fred then proceeds to step out into the street beside him and pretend to puke at the sight of his car. I took a picture and we laughed our asses off. Another funny line I heard in a similar situation was the night before. A guy had just finished revving his weed eater of a motor, when a guy standing beside us yelled,"Go back to the movies" The occupant of the vehicle riding shotgun then extended his middle finger to the guy. These imports were extremely out of place.
The concept "SS Silverado" another fine piece of machinery, complete with 6.0 L, that Chevy has no intentions of actually producing.
This was one of the nicest Bugs I have ever seen.
Most of the jeeps in Detroit, were much like this one. Mildly lifted, a few accessories, and a built small block Chevy. These guys would race off the lights like they were driving a street rod. I think I only saw a few that were sprung over, mostly hot rodded.
I guess this is the new exhaust for Camaros, centrally located like a Corvette, kind of cool.
This was a two seater bug, One behind the other, kind of a narrow track I guess.
This is the new mini cooper, I had heard they were bringing it back, but I hadn't seen one yet.
very lifted traveler.
The Kollins special, it had a soft top and fuzzy seat covers.
Guess what, "universals" for the wheels
63 split window, doesn't get anymore classic than this
FJ-something or other, different that anything I had seen before.
Sunbeam Tiger (thought you would like this one Brandon)
I need to get a "pimp shift transmission"
Duallie swampers.
A crazy Canuck Scout.
Ferrari, this is one import that I approve of. The guy driving the car was in his 50's, the blonde riding shotgun was about half his age. I need one of these...
I just thought this was a good looking rod, it looked cool sitting in front of the garage so I practiced my photography skillz.
Shaggoneer, this guy roasted the rear tires on the wagon, but it was behind a bus so I missed it. I tried to get him to do it again, but he was a bee-otch like most heep owners I know...(just kidding of course)
A new t-bird, saw more than one of these cruising.
You can bet it had a mean motor...
two tone and universals, if we could lose the pro-streetness, it would be a very current ride.
The obligatory, "look how many cars are backing up down the street" shot
I tried to get a pic of this guys wicked mullet, and I accidentally got a shot of a bunch of attractive girls in a convertible. There were plenty of attractive girls there, and a bunch of cool mulletheads as well.
I really don't know why I was flipping the camera off or making this awful face, but we were on the way to Canada to the casino.
We went to the Canuck Casino so that Fred can do what he was doing in this picture legally.
Benny smiling, he wouldn't be smiling quite as much when we left the casino a few hours later.
Fred went inside the Canuck 7-11 to use the bathroom. The lady told him in a french accent that "They didn't have a gas bar, so by law, they didn't have to have a bathroom" So Fred used the "dumpster bathroom"
Casino Magic, the casino where 19 and up gets in, and you have to trade in good American money for crazy Canadian money, and you have to buy your drinks, and they take all your money too, what a crock...
